Once all pre-operation tasks have been completed, the loader is ready to be operated. Follow these precautions during operation:
- Loaders should only be operated outdoors or in well-ventilated areas
- Always face the machine when entering or exiting
- Don't use the steering wheel or joystick as a handhold
- Fasten your seatbelt as soon as you are seated
- Maintain good visibility at all times. If you are using a spotter, maintain visual contact with that person or stop the machine.
- Keep sufficient clearance from overhead power lines and other energized conductors
- Know the approximate weight, dimensions and center of gravity of the load to be lifted
- Use slow and gradual joystick movements
- Allow sufficient space and time for stopping
- When traveling, lower the attachmend and the load as low as possible
